Barrow v Salisbury

Barrow will be looking to secure their spot in the Blue Square Premier when they host Salisbury at Holker Street on Saturday evening.

Bluebirds joint-boss Dave Bayliss has called on his players to give one final push in their bid to avoid relegation.

He told the NorthWest Evening Mail: "This is a massive game. It's important we get back to winning ways as soon as possible.

"We have all been hurting after the York defeat on Tuesday night, no-one likes getting beat 3-0, but it's down to us to put that right now, the sooner the better.

"I won't use tiredness as an excuse, neither will the players, we want three points and there's no better place than Holker Street to get them."

Bayliss is sweating on the fitness of Simon Spender, Paul Edwards and Gareth Jelleyman, who are all set to undergo late fitness tests.

Meanwhile, Whites boss Tommy Widdrington is confident that his side can pick up another win after they secured their place in next season's Blue Square Premier with a 3-1 win over Hayes and Yeading.

He told BBC Wiltshire: "I've told people to go out there as though their lives depend on it.

"Any player who turns down a contract at the moment is a brave guy because it's a tough climate out there."

Defender Luke Ruddick returns for the Whites after serving a two-match ban.
